Description

Aqueous lithium ion electrolyte and battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of secondary batteries, and particularly relates to a water-based electrolyte for a lithium ion battery and the lithium ion battery prepared on the basis of the water-based electrolyte.
Background
Lithium ion secondary batteries have been widely recognized since the last 90 th century because of their advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, etc., and have been widely used in the fields of power supplies for electronic products, electric vehicles, energy storage, etc.
The traditional lithium ion battery mainly adopts organic electrolyte, which is mainly because the voltage of the traditional LCO/graphite system lithium ion battery is higher and exceeds the stable voltage window of aqueous electrolyte, so that the traditional LCO/graphite system lithium ion battery only adopts organic solution electrolyte, but the lithium ion battery has the high potential safety hazard of low conductivity and easy combustion and explosion.
In recent years, with the increasing requirements for safety and environmental protection of power batteries, aqueous electrolytes are considered to be used instead of organic electrolytes; compared with the organic electrolyte, the aqueous electrolyte has the advantages of low cost, high safety, environmental friendliness, higher conductivity and capability of improving the power characteristics of the battery. However, the aqueous electrolyte has a narrow electrochemical window due to the hydrogen evolution reaction that easily occurs at the negative electrode and the oxygen evolution reaction that occurs at the positive electrode, and thus it is difficult for most of the positive and negative electrode materials to sufficiently exert their full capacities within this electrochemical window, which has been a serious problem that limits their applications.
At present, the most common method for widening the electrochemical window of the aqueous electrolyte is to prepare a high-concentration lithium salt aqueous solution, namely, a so-called "water in salt" electrolyte (Science,350(2015):938-943,10.1126/Science, abb1595,10.1038/s 41586-019-. However, such methods usually require the use of expensive lithium salts such as lithium trifluoromethanesulfonylimide, and the use of such lithium salts is large, which results in high cost for the preparation of the aqueous electrolyte solution, and also causes salting-out due to high viscosity of the electrolyte solution.
Therefore, it is necessary to find a simple, easy and cheap method for widening the electrochemical window of the aqueous electrolyte. The polar organic small molecules capable of simultaneously forming strong intermolecular force with lithium salt and water are utilized to "dilute" the high-salt electrolyte and simultaneously maintain the performances of a wide electrochemical window and the like, so that the method is an effective strategy for preparing the water-based electrolyte at low cost.

The invention is realized by the following steps: a water-based lithium ion electrolyte is prepared by compounding dimethyl sulfone, lithium perchlorate, urea and water according to a molar ratio of 0.5-2: 0.5-1.6: 0.5-2: 0.3-2, and is a transparent homogeneous solution obtained by mixing and grinding four raw materials and placing the mixture in a water bath for ultrasound treatment.
